An absolutely brilliant arrangement, keeping the essence of the original but at the same time gently flowing till the very end. Hats off

i was feeling so emotional by the end of this... and then an ad came on that consisted of children screaming. thank you youtube for ruining this experience.

First time in many years i've commented on a video or been lost for words. This arrangement is so emotional... man oh man. Music. It's crazy

정말 좋아하는 버전이에요. 1년 넘게 찾아들으러 옵니다 👍👍

My mother would sing me to sleep with this song circa 1948-1950. Sweet memories.

WOW that intro! Especially the transition through C7 Fm9 and Bb13

Glad you enjoyed it! I remember a few years back giving myself a little pat on the head when I figured out that intro!

Thank you so so much for making your incredible arrangments free & available! That is so generous! I love them.

😍 I just love those jazz chords. Beautifully arranged. Not many people appreciate this sophisticated music.

I can't even begin to imagine ever being skillful enough to play this. What a truly amazing gift you have given the world. Thank you.

I don’t know how to describe how this makes me feel, but I’ll try. This makes me feel old and like I’ve done everything I want to in life, and now I can sit back, reflect, and enjoy what life has in store for me. This radiates peace and relaxation, being carefree, and knowing that whatever comes at the end of the rainbow, at least you’re over it.

This beautiful, classic academy award winning song was first recorded by the legendary Judy Garland in 1938 when Judy Garland was just 15 for the beloved, fantastic, magnificent, wonderful classic 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz! This is my all-time favorite song from my all-time favorite movie! This song belongs only to Judy Garland. The only other person who can sing it is Doris Day! Judy Garland liked Doris Day's voice and told her that she should record Somewhere Over the Rainbow! Thank you for posting and sharing this! This beautiful song is of hopes and dreams!

Love the harmonies and the playing, fantastic arrangement

Wow!!! Un bellísimo arreglo, original y tremendamente emotivo! Bravo! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
